How are GOAL ZERO solar panels made?

Monocrystalline (or single cell) silicon solar panels are made by
cutting very thin wafers or discs from silicon rods that have been grown
from a single crystal. Wafers are then processed into individual cells
that are wired together in two layers. The bottom layer of silicon is
positively charged and the top layer of silicon is negatively charged.

How is solar energy collected and stored?

The solar panel is a collection of individual silicon cells that
generate electricity from sunlight. When the sunlight hits the panel
electrons get excited and move from layer to the next creating
electricity. A single solar cell produces only about .5 of a volt.
